A premier open source portal: Metadot

By John Locke on May 23, 2005

Joining the ranks of Sharepoint Portal Server, Plone, Mambo, PostNuke, and hundreds of other portal systems, is the open source Metadot Portal Server. It's been around for a few years, but I just ran across it thanks to an interview with its creator on a podcast I was just listening to.

Looks like a great option for larger businesses and organizations needing something with built-in document versioning along with all the other available features.
